A Taste of Cloud Computing
« on: September 03, 2010, 02:16:12 pm »
I am sure that a lot of you have heard about the new buzzword, Cloud Computing.

At the moment I am accessing the Avforum web site from a virtual desktop created on a cloud computing website and it is quite nifty 8)

If you are interested, go to http://www.icloud.com, sign up and a virtual desktop will be created for you.

The interesting thing is that when you browse from your virtual desktop, you are not restricted by the filtering rules applied by your organisation ::)
